Abstract：
:New data have shown that sebum secretion is highest in young adults and then declines steadily throughout life in both men and women. This parallels the decline in androgen levels, but this cannot be the sole factor because there is so much overlap in sebaceous gland activity between men and women. The increased occurrence of dry skin in the elderly has been shown to be unrelated to the sebum secretion rate. This is not unexpected, as children, with even less sebum, rarely have this problem. Seborrheic dermatitis, which is also much more common in the elderly, is also unrelated to sebum secretion rate.
